ILOCOS NORTE: PARADISE OF THE ILOCANOS AND HAVEN OF THE TOURISTS

    

 In the tip of the north west of Luzon, there is a paradise that blessed its people their source of living and attractions to the eyes who witnessed its spectacular views. This recent years, Ilocos Norte is visible is the map due to its beautiful sceneries and breathtaking views that the Mother Nature has bestowed to my beloved province. Now, Ilocos Norte is competitive when it comes to the field of tourism.
     I know that it is the dream of everyone to visit beautiful places the looks like the Garden of Eve or travel abroad to visit the world renowned sceneries and I share with you the same dream. However, I must say that before you  look the beauty of foreign countries, one must first explore the beauty of your home town or your country so that you can be proud of yourself and your hometown/country when you get to other places.
    You can reach Ilocos Norte by air or by land. It is approximately 45 minutes of travel from Manila to Laoag City, Ilocos Norte if you take the plane or 9 to 10 hours if you choose the bus or SUVs as a means of transportation. The following sceneries are found in the northern part of the province.
    From Laoag City, you can start your adventure by visiting the Sinking Bell Tower located at the heart of the city of Laoag City. If you are traversing the Gilbert Bridge in Laoag City that passes the Padsan, you can see this famous Bell Tower. Last December 2012, there were rumors that allegedly the image of Virgin Mary appeared in its wall. Many people flocks to the said place to witness the said miracle and some speculations were spread but one thing is for sure, this event showed the devotions of the Ilocanos to Virgin Mary.

    Likewise in this city, you can relax and enjoy the fresh breeze of the air and the beautiful sunset in Fort Ilocandia. The best time to be there is during sunrise or sunset. Well, it is also in this where the movie “Panday” was shot and some foreign movies.
